Hubby and I are going if we can find a babysitter for the morning and afternoon. Well, if we have to…we will break out the jogger stroller! Hopefully the rain storms will be over by the time the event comes around.

I think I’m going to skip this palette. I have Book of Shadows I & II and therefore, a lot of the shadows in Vol. III. I also have the eyeliners and primer. It’s a really neat set, though, if you don’t already own UD palettes. I wish they’d make their palettes w/ all-new shadows, rather than recycling shades like Midnight Cowboy, Maui Wowie, Smog, etc. I had to skip the Alice in Wonderland palette for that reason, even though it was absolutely adorable.

I just got the Naked Palette, so not sure I can really afford the BOS III, but I am from NY and think it’s so cool that a BOS has the NYC theme. It will definitely be an adventure to wait on line for hours for an early BOS…chaos – since the two times square Sephora’s that I know about are both smaller than one would think, so I don’t know where all of the people would go, but probably a lot of fun. Will definitely post again if I go.

Ugggghhhh every reminder I see makes me so sad. I planned a trip out of the city the DAY BEFORE this event was announced and it’s my weekend off from work!! This is such a unique opportunity, and opportunities like this are one of the reasons I love living in New York…so very very jealous of those that get to attend. I’m looking forward to September 7th though as well as all the pictures and news from the people that did get to go!!!

I can’t get to NYC. But I’ll be buying this, definitely. I just bought the Naked palette and as it was my first UD palette the only dupe I’ll have is Smog – so I’m sure to be pleased. Those blues are just gorgeous – everything is. Can’t wait!

Sorry, I forgot to ask – I’m sure these definitely aren’t full size shadows so for someone like me who is new to UD – you’d say this is still a good deal, right? I’m just trying to think of how many of the small eyeshadows in the palette would go into one full size shadow. If it comes out better, than I guess yeah it definitely is. I’m not explaining myself very well lol – but just wanted to be sure!
